Oh, no, absolutely. I mean, it's incredible, it's just fucking harsh. I can recognise its amazingness without ever ever wanting to watch it again. Like Dancer in the Dark.
Ahhh, okay. Yeah, for me, that's Fargo. I don't know why that movie is harsh for me, but -- ug. I'm glad I saw it, but thanks I'm done.
I... think I've rewatched Pegasus three times. Um. I have fondness, in a story-telling way, for depictions of torture? In that it's complicated? *looks cute and innocent and not at all creepy*
Did you watch the deleted scenes for it? They're. Even more harsh, so if not your thing, don't watch, but for me it's like wiggling a loose tooth. It's horrible and awful and I can't not watch it: it's fascinating.
